Humor
Why is it that when you're driving and looking for an address, you turn down the volume on the radio?
 
We had been on the road for 15 hours en route from New York to California and were looking for a place to spend the night.  At four different motels, however, we were told, "Sorry, no vacancies."  Heading back to the car, my seven-year-old son asked solemnly,  "Mom, are we vacancies?"
 
Ever notice that anyone going slower than you is an idiot, but anyone going faster is a maniac?

McCloud’s 61st Annual Lumberjack Fiesta
A weekend of competition all in good fun – and for a good cause!

A few weeks after the Fourth of July fireworks have subsided and the kids realize there’s only a month or so left before school starts again, northern California will keep your spirits up with its annual Lumberjack Fiesta. Held for over 50 years in the mountainous region of McCloud and Mount Shasta, this year’s festival will be on July 26 and 27 under the beautiful pine trees of Hoo Hoo Park. In celebration of McCloud’s “Lumber Town” heritage, the Fiesta includes everything from amateur logging competitions to an old-fashioned Main Street Parade. Even better, all funds benefit McCloud youth sports.

San Diego has a little bit of everything - sports, world-class destinations and plenty of dining. In this city, you’ll discover talented chefs and award-winning restaurants that serve up everything from spicy Mexican to fresh seafood. The big question you’re thinking is where to begin? We’ve made it easy for you. Here’s our pick of four standouts that deliver the delicious goods!

Fight Back with the 2008 Audi A3 Sportback
Don’t let high fuel prices deny you driving fun!

The front-drive 2008 A3 2.0 T has the balance and response associated with sportscars, yet inside, the A3 is roomy, versatile and upscale. Why settle for a boring car when you can have driving pleasure and fuel economy in the exciting 2008 Audi A3?

Think of the 2008 Audi A5 as Performance Art
Audi perfects the art and science of the luxury sports coupe.

As the 2008 A5 shows, nobody does “different” better than Audi. From its wide and low stance, wheels at the corners to its modern sculptured form, high beltline and bold, trapezoidal Audi grille, the A5 provokes excitement while issuing an invitation to explore its equally seductive interior where driver and machine become one. Enter at the risk of ownership!

What Do You Get When You Cross a Tiger With an Iguana?
Why, the 2009 Volkswagen Tiguan, of course! Get ready for this compact SUV to take over the roads.

A cross between a tiger and an iguana? No, it’s not a science experiment gone horribly wrong, it’s where the name came from for Volkswagen’s 2009 Tiguan. Names aside, what you get is a vehicle that provides a supple ride, compact dimensions and solid chassis, a vehicle that will make VW’s mark in the world of compact SUVs.

Not Your Regular Station Wagon
Say hello to the new era of station wagons where style, fuel-efficiency and coolness meet.

This isn’t the station wagon that the Brady Bunch drove, but we’re sure if they had the chance to drive Volkswagen’s 2009 Jetta SportWagen, they would have. Built on the Golf/Jetta platform, the VW SportWagen breaks down the stereotype of the station wagon, delivering a stylish ride.

The Master of Suspense
Here’s to the one who virtually invented the thriller genre.

His movies are referenced in countless other movies and even on television. And you might even whistle the theme song to his television series or easily recognize that iconic silhouette.

Have S’more This Summer
Stock up on some more ideas for this simple summer snack.

As the traditional campfire treat, the s’more, by definition, is a slab of chocolate and a marshmallow, sandwiched between two pieces of Graham cracker. But we’ve got some more ideas on the stick.

Go Green – Green Beans, That Is!
Add some crunch and color to your meals with this yummy veggie.

Reap the benefits of beans! Summer is peak season for green beans, so kick your dinner up a notch with this snappy legume. Whether you call them string beans or green beans, or if the first thing that comes into your mind is the Jolly Green Giant, this veggie packs a power punch. One of the few varieties of beans that can be eaten fresh, green beans is low in calories (43.75 calories in a whole cup!) and is loaded with plenty of nutrients.

Clear the Car Chaos!
No one wants to take a ride in a messy car. It’s time to get your clean on!

It may not come as a surprise that we probably spend more time in our cars than in certain rooms of our homes. However, while our homes get spring cleanings and dustings, our cars may miss out on some housekeeping. Fear not! Keeping your car clean and neat is easier than you think!

Cut the Cake and the Costs on Your Wedding Day
Easy ways to save – and no one will ever know!

The average wedding in the United States costs about $20,000 – roughly the price of a nice, brand new car. Whether the car will last longer than the marriage is up for debate, but it will certainly last longer than that one day of bliss. While a wedding should be a day of indulgence, there’s no reason to go into debt in order to have a beautiful day of matrimony. Here’s a list of great ways to cut costs on your wedding:

Horsepower is What You Pay For and Torque is What You Love!
So why do I feel like that’s just the “simple” definition?

The fact is almost no one can define horsepower and torque, but they know it when they feel it. There’s a reason why it takes mechanical engineers to define torque and its relationship to horsepower, much less how it is measured where it counts—at the drive wheels. It’s COMPLICATED! In fact, it is so complex that we are used to throwing around horsepower numbers and torque (in pound-feet, no less) that we can use the figures for comparison and still not have the foggiest idea what they really mean.
